Happy New Year

This is a bit late but I have had a busy couple of weeks and am just now getting around to this.

I just wanted to thank everyone for a great year. It has been one year since I took over as the organizer and we have had quite a year. Our membership has grown (total numbers are about the same but we have added many active members) and we have had many events with waiting lists.

With that, I would like to remind people to try to change their RSVP if things change. We do not penalize people but it is nice, especially if there is a waiting list, to make the spot available so other people can attend. We all have last minute things and with our crazy Maine weather there is always the possibility of people getting stuck, having accidents, or just not being able to make it.

I periodically clean up our membership list. My criteria are those who have not been on the site for over 6 months or haven't paid dues in over a year and not attended any events in the previous year. So, if you meet any of those criteria but still want to remain a member, please let me know.

Dues are paid annually, e.g. if you paid in April, they will be due in April. I update the member's title to dues paid once a month or so, so if you paid and it doesn't show up, don't worry. If you pay by paypal your payment will show up automatically. If you sent/gave me a check or cash it will get entered by me when I update the site.

I hope everyone is staying safe and warm on this not so lovely Maine weekend. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. We are always happy to entertain new ideas for activities. Unfortunately our Wednesday, Wine and Women had to be postponed. It was looking to be a well attended event and I was so disappointed when it had to be cancelled. We will get the site updated once the final decision is made as to a new date and location.

We are women from Brunswick and the surrounding area. We range from 20's to 70's who are single, divorced, married, or in a relationship. Some with little kids, teenage kids, grown kids, grandkids, no kids. We have women in school, just out of school, some work, some don't, some retired, some wish they were retired.... We have people who have lived in Maine all of their lives, some have gone and come back and others are brand new to Maine. You get the picture. What we all have in common is the desire to create and maintain friendships with other women in the area. Our regular meetups include monthly lunch, book club and dinner. We are always happy to have others suggest events, host events and introduce others to our amazing group of women.
